109.93 lbs

since the quantities vary directly, then

w(moon) = kw(earth ) ← ( k is the constant of variation )

to find k use the given condition

k = w( moon ) / w( earth ) = \frac{25.66}{150.94}

given w(earth) = 218.24

w(moon) = \frac{25.66(218.24)}{150.94} = 109.93

2/3(6c+4)-(8c-5)
1) Get rid of the negative signs
New equation (the ones in bold are the changes): 2/3(6c+4)+(-8c)+(5)
2) Use distributive property for the first part by multiplying 2/3*6c= 4c and 2/3*4= 2 2/3
New equation: 4c+2 2/3+ (-8c) + 5
3) Combine like terms: 4c+(-8c)= -4c and 2 2/3+5= 7 2/3
New and simplified equation: -4c+ 7 2/3

In the diagram, point C represents the center of the sphere. Diego says that the part of the sphere labeled D is the radius. Gre
Katen [24]

Answer:

Gregoire is correct; the diameter is a chord that passes through the center of the sphere.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sphere is a geometrical shape formed from a circle. Some of its parts are: diameter, center, radius circumference, etc.

The center of a sphere is a point at its middle. The diameter is a straight line, e.g a chord, that is drawn from one point on the circumference of a sphere to another point and passes through its center. While radius is a line that is from the center of the sphere to a point on its circumference.

A diameter is twice of a radius, so that:

                            Radius = \frac{Diameter}{2}

⇒                        Diameter = 2 × Radius

Therefore with respect to the question, Gregoire is correct because a diameter is a chord that passes through the center of the sphere.

Find the value of y when x = 10, if y = 35 when x = 7.
olga55 [171]

Set up a proportion:

y = 35 when x = 7

y = ? when x = 10

To get x from 7 to 10, you have to multiply by \frac{10}{7}. Therefore, you do the same to 35, and you get:

35 \times \frac{10}{7} = 50

And your answer is 50 :)
